Should You Steer Towards the Narrow Side When Reversing into a Parking Space?
1 Answers
Steer the wheel towards the side that is wider for correction. Below is relevant information about reversing into a parking space: 1. Overview: Reversing into a parking space has been a mandatory test item for obtaining a small car driver's license since 2013. It assesses the driver's ability to maneuver the vehicle in a confined space. This is one of the key evaluation points in the driver's test, requiring the candidate to correctly reverse the vehicle into a garage from both sides while in motion, within a time limit. 2. Methods: There are three most common types of reversing maneuvers. The first is the 'non'-shaped reverse parking, commonly found in large shopping malls. The second is the roadside 'linear' reverse parking, often referred to as parallel parking. The third and less common is the diagonal reverse parking. Approximately 70% of driving students find parallel parking more challenging.
